Seeing Qin Wei's appearance, Chu Jiayi was first surprised, then happy

Qin Wei is responsible for the contact between Zhao Junchen and Xichang. Now that Tūrán is asking for a meeting, he must have something important to report! Chu Jiayi can also take this opportunity to find out Zhao Junchen’s intelligence information.

However, after Qin Wei entered the room, he was about to say something shíme, but when he saw Chu Jiayi on the side, he couldn't speak. ""Novel chapters are updated the fastest.

At this time, Zhao Junchen happened to approve a document. After looking up and seeing Qin Wei's expression, he hesitated for a moment, but then told Chu Jiayi: "I happen to be hungry, go and get some refreshments."

míngbáizìjǐ just came to Zhao Junchen. Zhao Junchen didn't trust zìjǐ yet, so Chu Jiayi didn't hesitate, agreed and left the study.

However, after leaving the study, Chu Jiayi did not go to prepare refreshments, but waved to the two servants of the Zhao family who were waiting not far outside the study.

Seeing that it was Chu Jiayi's call, the two servants of the Zhao family did not dare to neglect. They quickly came to Chu Jiayi and asked, "Miss Chu, do you have something to tell me?"

Chu Jiayi asked softly: "I forgot to ask just now, what are you two called?"

Seeing Chu Jiayi asking this question, both of them were overjoyed. The taller servant of the Zhao family quickly replied: "Girl, my name is Mao Xin."

The slightly introverted servant of the Zhao family also said, "My name is Lu Ning."

Chu Jiayi nodded, then smiled slightly and said: "Master is hungry and wants to eat some snacks, but I have to prepare pens and sharpen ink for him, but I can't get away..."

Hearing what Chu Jiayi said, Mao Xin quickly replied: "Don't bother Miss Chu with this little thing, we can just go and prepare it."

Saying that, Mao Xin didn't hesitate and turned around immediately.

Lu Ning was still standing there, and he left with Mao Xin. He just wanted to say something to Chu Jiayi from time to time.

Seeing Lu Ning being so nirvana, Chu Jiayi secretly frowned and didn't want to tangle with him, but she chuckled and added: "By the way, sir, he also wants some tea and fragrant tea."

Lu Ning looked a little disappointed when he heard Chu Jiayi's instructions, but turned around to prepare tea.

After sending the two people away, Chu Jiayi breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that there was no one else in the study room. Then she leaned against the study window and raised her ears to listen to the conversation in the study room.

…………

Fortunately, Qin Wei's report has just begun, and Chu Jiayi did not miss it at all.

In the study, a rough voice sounded first. It should be Qin Wei speaking.

"Mr. Factory Supervisor, Xichang Fanzi has just received news that another refugee is coming to Beijing to file a complaint. This time, two waves came in one go. They are all people from Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces."

Then Chu Jiayi heard Zhao Junchen's voice: "Oh? Is it because of the flaw in the preparations for the southern tour again? Is it likely that they will be able to come to the capital?"

Qin Wei replied: "According to commentators, these refugees have arrived at the boundary of Shunde Prefecture in Beizhili and will arrive in Beijing around this time tomorrow."

Zhao Junchen sighed and said: "Now that refugees from all over the country are coming to Beijing to complain, the prince's next trouble will probably become bigger and bigger, and it will be impossible to cover it up."

Hearing this, Chu Jiayi's heart sank.

Chu Jiayi has naturally heard about all the things that have happened in the capital these days, and is aware of the current troubles of Prince Zhu Heyu. Now that Zhao Junchen mentioned this, she naturally listened more carefully.

In the study, Xu Qingyan's voice sounded next: "Master, what should we do?"

Zhao Junchen's voice was silent for a moment, as if he was thinking about it, and then said slowly: "The prince's crown prince is stable for three reasons; one is that your majesty values ​​him, the other is his own reputation as a wise man, and the third is It is the support of the Metropolitan Procuratorate for him. As long as these three still exist, the prince's status will be as stable as a mountain."

After a pause, Zhao Junchen continued: "Now that there are such big flaws in the preparations for the southern tour, Your Majesty will definitely have doubts about the prince's ability to do things; and rumors against the prince have already arisen, even if he wants to quell them, He is no longer capable at all, and the prince’s reputation is no longer as virtuous as before. As a result, two of the three foundations of the prince have been shaken.”

Xu Qingyan responded: "It's Ai, now only the Metropolitan Procuratorate is left."

Zhao Junchen smiled and said slowly: "Everything that has happened in the past few days, I am afraid that someone is deliberately targeting the prince, but the method is clever. He has shaken the foundation of the prince without making a sound. How can he let alone now?" The Metropolitan Procuratorate? Yesterday, the refugees from Heze, Shandong Province went to the Metropolitan Procuratorate to file a complaint. However, under the instigation of a thoughtful person, the Metropolitan Procuratorate actually accepted the case. This may seem unusual, but it was a foreshadowing of the Metropolitan Procuratorate. Think about it. Once the flaws in the preparations for the southern tour were brought to the attention of the imperial court, the prince would definitely be in trouble. The refusal of the Metropolitan Procuratorate to accept the refugee case was clear evidence that they were protecting the prince. If someone impeached him in the future, there would definitely be a purge. Once the rectification process loses the support of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, the crown prince's status may not be stable."

Xu Qingyan suddenly said: "I see, it seems that the prince will be uncomfortable in the future."

Zhao Junchen pondered for a while and then said: "However, those people in the Metropolitan Procuratorate have probably thought of this now. When the second batch of refugees comes to Beijing, they will be the first to accept the case. In addition to getting rid of their protection of the prince, In addition to being suspicious, they also control the subsequent development of the case in their own hands..."

At this point, Zhao Junchen seemed to have made a terrible decision, but he ordered Qin Wei: "Qin Wei, you must secretly inform the Ministry of Punishment and Dali Temple about the arrival of this group of refugees in Beijing, and ask them to get ahead of the Metropolitan Procuratorate. With this group of refugees in hand, the next development will not be decided by the Metropolitan Procuratorate."

"It's a humble job." After Qin Wei agreed, he hesitated and said, "However, when the refugees from Heze, Shandong came to Beijing to file a complaint, the Ministry of Punishment and Dali Temple also accepted the case without permission. Now..."

Zhao Junchen said: "Don't worry, the Ministry of Punishment and Dali Temple did not accept the case at first because they wanted to make the matter bigger. Now that the matter has become bigger, they will think about taking the matter into the hands of the government."

On the other side, Xu Qingyan already said: "I see, this is what the young master wants to see."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Next, Zhao Junchen discussed some details with Qin Wei. When Qin Wei left the study, he happened to see Chu Jiayi coming to the door of the study with tea.

He also saw two servants of the Zhao family waiting not far away. Qin Wei also suspected that Chu Jiayi was eavesdropping, so he just nodded to Chu Jiayi and left quickly.

Chu Jiayi looked at Wei Huai's leaving figure, her expression seemed normal, but her thoughts were racing in her heart!

tōngguò Just eavesdropped outside the study, and Chu Jiayi got two useful pieces of information.

The first news: Zhao Junchen does not seem to be involved in the various plans for the prince, but he is also happy to see them succeed.

The second news: Although Zhao Junchen did not participate in the plan against the prince, he obviously planned to add fuel to the flames and put the prince into an even more unfavorable situation!

"His Royal Highness must be notified as soon as possible and let the Metropolitan Procuratorate take over the refugees who come to Beijing to complain. Otherwise, if it is really like what Zhao Junchen planned, the Crown Prince will be in even more trouble."

Chu Jiayi secretly thought in her heart

………

While thinking secretly, Chu Jiayi remained calm and just came to the study room with tea. She saw that Zhao Junchen's expression was as usual and he was continuing to review the papers.

Chu Jiayi didn't want to say much, but brought the tea to Zhao Junchen, and then said softly: "Master, the tea is here, let's eat some at the office first."

Zhao Junchen nodded, put down the book in his hand, and then picked up a piece of mung bean cake to taste. But after taking a bite, he shook his head and said to Chu Jiayi: "These days, you have been naughty to me. , such an ordinary pastry always tastes bad.”

With that said, Zhao Junchen pushed the pastry aside, but continued to review the booklet.

Although Chu Jiayi was eager to send the information she had found out to Prince Zhu Heyu, she still found a reason to leave in such a hurry, which might arouse Zhao Junchen's suspicion.

Therefore, Chu Jiayi remained calm and continued to prepare pens and sharpen ink for Zhao Junchen, and said softly: "If the master doesn't like it, my maid will prepare your favorite osmanthus cake in a while."

Zhao Junchen didn't even hear it at all, he just nodded and continued to review the excerpts.

Just like that, time passed by, and soon it was evening, and the sky was dim

And Zhao Junchen finally finished reviewing the excerpts, stretched his waist, looked relaxed, and sighed: "It's finally over."

On the other side, Chu Jiayi said softly: "Thank you for your hard work, sir."

While talking, Chu Jiayi had already neatly arranged Zhao Junchen's desk.

Then, Chu Jiayi carefully asked Zhao Junchen for instructions: "Master, if there is nothing else to do, I will prepare the supper for you tonight."

Zhao Junchen smiled and nodded, and said: "Go, nothing will happen here, it's good if Qingyan is here."

Hearing what Zhao Junchen said, Chu Jiayi felt happy. After saluting Zhao Junchen, she quickly left.

However, when Chu Jiayi left, Zhao Junchen kept his eyes on her back, with some scrutiny and thoughtfulness.

………

However, after Chu Jiayi left the study, she did not go to the kitchen to prepare pastries and supper for the night. Instead, she found a reason to leave the Zhao Mansion.

But Chu Jiayi didn't know that. Ever since she left the Zhao Mansion, she had been secretly followed by the Xichang police arranged by Wei Huai, and everything she did was hidden from Zhao Junchen's eyes.
